computational complexity

Inherent cost of solving a problem in large-scale scientific computation, measured by the number of operations required as well as the amount of memory used and the order in which it is used. The result of a complexity analysis is an estimate of how rapidly the solution time increases as the problem size increases, which can be used to analyze problems and assist in the design of algorithms for their solution.


(algorithm)computational complexity - The number of steps or arithmetic operations required to solve a computational problem. One of the three kinds of complexity.

Rush Hour's computational complexity is greater than that of Blocks World, whose time to a solution increases algebraically rather than exponentially.
The number of discovered patterns depends, in turn, on the amount of "historical" data the algorithm can store as well as the computational complexity required to search for these patterns in this buffer.
Quantized Indexing also reduces the computational complexity of data compression in all applications, resulting in faster execution on all processors.
